Chapter 309 The Great Secret



(309)

He was really worried that she would be disfigured. He didn't expect Lin Tingyue to be so ruthless. Thinking of this, Lin Tingfeng's face darkened and he felt a surge of anger.

He had seen the injuries on both of them. Ye Wenyu was seriously injured, but Lin Tingyue's face was only slightly swollen, with no broken skin or bleeding. This incident showed that the two had vastly different personalities.

One is kind, the other is evil.

He took her hand and led her to the first-aid kit at home. Then he found iodine and cotton swabs to clean her wound. Ye Wenyu sat opposite Lin Tingfeng like an obedient child. The cool medicine felt very comfortable on her face, and the burning pain was gone.

Watching him carefully apply ointment to her wound, she felt a surge of warmth in her heart.

While applying medicine to her, Lin Tingfeng said to her, "That girl didn't have any injuries on her face, which shows that when you resisted, you didn't really mean to hurt her. But she went all out and injured you very badly."

Ye Wenyu smiled gently and said to Lin Tingfeng, "Tingyue is so beautiful and values ​​her appearance, how could I dare to truly hurt her?"

Hearing this, Lin Tingfeng felt a surge of tenderness in his heart. He thought to himself, even though Lin Tingyue was the one who started the trouble, this girl didn't dare to hurt the other party when she was defending herself.

It's clear he didn't favor the wrong person.

He gazed at her and said in a voice as gentle as silk, "You're beautiful too. Aren't you afraid of being disfigured if you don't take good care of yourself?"

Ye Wenyu raised her eyebrows and said to him, "For me, being disfigured is the same as having plastic surgery."

Lin Tingfeng couldn't help but laugh out loud, thinking that this girl was so adorably humble. Naturally beautiful and without makeup, she was much prettier than Lin Tingyue, who was always wearing makeup.

Ye Wenyu recalled Lin Tingyue's angry declaration that she would sever her sibling relationship with Lin Tingfeng when she left, and felt a pang of guilt. She said to him apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault that you two siblings have fallen out."

Lin Tingfeng was taken aback. He lowered his head and looked at the apologetic look on Ye Wenyu's face. He couldn't help but smile and said gently, "It's not your fault. If she insists on hating me, it's because of me."

Sibling discord? If it really was a sibling falling out, then this incident would have happened more than twenty years ago.

Because of him? Ye Wenyu didn't understand.

Her mind was completely blank. She stared blankly at Lin Tingfeng.

It was clearly her fault, so why did he insist on taking the blame upon himself?

The room was bathed in warm, orange light. On the coffee table sat a large bottle of pink lilies, quietly releasing their fragrance, while the wind howled outside the window.

Lin Tingfeng seemed lost in the past, remaining silent for a while before smiling and slowly saying, "Actually, it's not my fault. If I had to find someone to blame, it would be her mother's fault."

What? Lin Tingyue's mother's fault? Ye Wenyu's eyes widened, completely bewildered; she understood even less.

Seeing the shocked and curious expression on Ye Wenyu's face, Lin Tingfeng realized that he had said too much. He wasn't worried that the girl would talk too much and reveal too much, but rather that she would bring trouble upon herself if she knew too much. Now that Lin Tingyue hated him, his life would probably not be as peaceful and tranquil as before.

Therefore, he remained silent for a moment, silently cleaning and bandaging all the wounds on her face and body. Then he stood up, packed his medical kit, and said to her, "Alright, you must be tired today. Get some rest."

Ye Wenyu knew he didn't want to talk about the Lin family anymore. He had always been a cautious and silent person, his heart as tight as an iron barrel. If he didn't take the initiative to talk about it, her curiosity would only annoy him. Therefore, she also remained silent.

She looked at him, under the lamplight, at his hands as he quietly organized the medicine box, clean and long, with large knuckles, so meticulous and thoughtful, just like his meticulous mind.

Ye Wenyu had known all along that the Lin family harbored a huge secret, and from the very beginning, she had rejected that secret. Lin Tingxuan's accusations and Lin Tingyue's tears now flashed before her eyes like a montage from a movie. Her heart began to pound with unease.

She was someone standing in a maze, and clearly, she had been involuntarily drawn into the Lin family's vortex.

However, since Lin Tingfeng was unwilling to say more, she didn't press him further. So, she smiled and said softly, "Tingfeng, thank you for bandaging my wound."

Lin Tingfeng laughed, reached out and gently stroked her slightly swollen face, and said softly, "This is what I should do. Why should we thank each other?"

Ye Wenyu remembered Lin Tingyue's jealousy again. She mustered up her courage, raised her head, and said to Lin Tingfeng, "Can I ask you a question?"

Lin Tingfeng felt a surge of nervousness; the skin on his back tightened, and he was on high alert. Nevertheless, he smiled and asked, "Go ahead and ask." His palms were already sweating. He didn't know what she wanted to ask, or how he would answer questions he couldn't answer. After all, he didn't want to lie to her, because she would be upset if she found out later, and right now, that was the last thing he wanted to do.

Ye Wenyu smiled and asked him, "Why are you so good to me?"

Lin Tingfeng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled, feeling a huge weight lifted from his chest. What a lovely question!

He reached out and gently stroked her long, glossy hair, smiling tenderly at her, "Because you deserve my kindness."

Ye Wenyu tilted her head and continued to ask him, "But Tingyue is your own sister. When she gets married, will she really not receive a single penny of dowry?"

Lin Tingfeng had no choice but to say, "This is the second question." Ye Wenyu knew he didn't want to answer, her face flushed, and she turned around and said, "I'll go pick up the property certificate."

Lin Tingfeng smiled and said, "You rest, I'll go pick it up."

Ye Wenyu immediately stepped in front of Lin Tingfeng and said to him hurriedly, "You are a big boss, how can I let you bend over? Let me do it."

Lin Tingfeng looked at her; her pretty face was bandaged with several small bandages, and she was holding out her hands, nervously and earnestly trying to stop him. He couldn't help but smile and said to her, "Then I'll pick them up with you."

Seeing his insistence, Ye Wenyu had no choice but to agree. However, when picking up the fragments, she still only let him stand aside while she squatted on the ground and carefully picked them up herself.

Lin Tingfeng ignored her advice, squatted down to help her pick up the shards, and slowly said to her, "Why are you picking up these shards? Because the property certificate is torn up, so this house, and the villa in Hangzhou, no longer belong to you?"
